You can't get them to put it on a boat? I remember I used to get coffin sized boxes via boat back in the day! 

It was not offered but I am verifying. I'll let you all know what they respond with. This was the final issue Premium subscription item added for 250 YEN. Most expensive 250 YEN item ever. Yikes.

I'm located in the US and been getting the full Hachette subscription sent to my Tenso box. Well, the display case came in. If you are in a similar situation all I can say is sell a kidney. The shipping is looking like $500 and it is too large for Japan Post. DHL only folks. Brace yourselves.

Was happy to receive my VF-1D finally from Luna Park. They mentioned that they had issues because of Olympic activities where some of there merch was stored with DHL. It did appear to have been delivered by Ace Ventura. Brown shipper box covered with a layer of bubble wrap and then put into a plastic DHL bag. Contents were fine but corners were all dented and some box crushing. Sounds like some other folks had similar experience.

This is the expensive vol. 35

I noticed mine had paint that easily smudged so I’m guessing that drove demand for replacements as well. The white text on the black paint was especially problematic. Might be worth spraying some clear coat in limited areas.

NO, WE CAN'T!!!!

It's red! ...at least until the special weathering edition repaint is announced when we will pay extra for pink

 I'm just happy Sentinel has committed to this line. Just don't break our hearts on Houquet's ride armor and please release the Treads!  

Just got notification from AZJ confirming Red Legioss delivery between 1/31 and 2/02. Nice to know we are still on track.

Kurama just shipped my TV Supers

Same here. Also, got notice of pick up from Fedex LANTAU ISLAND, HK

Just wanted to say thanks to all on the Luna Park info on the 1D Preorder. NEWCUSTOMER discount really helped with the "Missed Preorder Blues." My confirmation showed 3000 Yen flat shipping cost with 1-2 weeks delivery time to East Coast US in case anyone was still considering going with them. I'm assuming DHL or FedEx. So really not bad methinks.

FedEx just delivered mine today from NNG first batch! Can't wait to get to it 

My NNG first batch order has been picked up. No delivery estimate but its FEDEX to US so not long I suppose.

Got my NNG first batch shipping notice. Hopeful for a good experience on my first purchase with them.

I finished rebuilding the cockpit. The seat was also diecast, took me a while to modify it.

Really great work! I've been lamenting not going for more detail on mine. Your use of color behind the seat is fantastic!

For Amazon, brand new stuff sold by Amazon is packaged well. Buying stuff later, through Amazon market place (even fulfilled by Amazon) means rolling the dice on packaging. 

That's been my experience as well. AJ has always shipped using a box with the item shrinkwrapped to a glued down cardboard base. Very surprised (and unnerved) seeing the padded envelope approach for something of that size. Makes sense that it was Marketplace but still lame. Mandy and Ami never shipped anything like that even on used items.

My girlfriend who lives in Japan sent me from volume 3 to 19, all in one single box . No instructions though, but Hachette’s Youtube channel shows all the steps to build it.

Woah. She's a keeper. Have fun! I'm building a few of these type of kits and find the VF to be very high quality compared to Eaglemoss or even Deagostini offerings. Enjoy!

But did he eat it? It was being prepared, he was playing guitar and then died. Forensics supports this. He in fact did NOT eat pineapple salad.

So many questions! Call in Dr. Michael Baden!

It's Hikaru's Super VF-1S. Roy ate pineapple salad before the Packs were operational 

Concur wholeheartedly with your view of the canon.

TV Fast Packs, and it's definitely in fighter mode on it's own stand. Highly doubt it's Roy's, most likely it's TV Hikaru's VF-1S, and I wouldn't be surprised if this was sold as a complete set, but I could be wrong.

It appears to be a black wing stripe and a yellow stripe on the leg fin so doesn't that just make the valk another TV Roy underneath?

1 at NinNin for me who ever is keeping count

Mine since May 5. Couple of TF stuff. Should have used DHL.

Yep. I have been using DHL since the cutoff on the 24th of April. Was EMS still accepting in some locations into May?

Uhoh, I think I know what I'm watching this Sunday.

Getting excited to see this thing in hand! It's been a long wait.

For anyone with items trapped in EMS jail right now, I just my last package start moving today that has been sitting since April 18th. 

Very cool! Cant wait to see the finished product
